Wow, it got personal. Can’t imagine killing a “German” dog. Or burning a barn full of livestock. Although a MAGAt fool bragged on FB that he killed his beloved dog to see if he would be able to kill a stranger. Sometimes I don’t think humanity is very human.

It appears not to be - probably more often than some times!?!?!

Do you remember "Freedom Fries" from the early 00's? The more things change, the more they stay the same...

I have thought of that several times lately. That and “Freedom isn’t free” they all spouted as W had us invading Iraq which had absolutely nothing to do with our freedom. Same idiots burning the cd’s of the Dixie Chicks as those pouring out and boycotting Bud Light. Cut off your nose to spite your face because “you know.” Fighting that mentality is so exhausting…but absolutely necessary now.

Oh, my bff’s son was a W lover. Made me puke. I thought that we aren’t that stupid back then, with daily proof that some are. He was a major jerk when he was in jr high. Took after his dad. Lord, what memories. So depressing. And then we get chump, hard to fathom. The tea party, was the connection.

Not just necessary, but crucial.

They want all of us exhausted and broke, and powerless.

This was another action that happened to us, which is similar to the dachshund story. When JFK was assassinated we were terrified on a Los Angeles freeway by a crazed driver who tried to force us off the road because our VW bug had Texas plates. (My Naval officer husband had just come off active duty; he had registered car in his hometown, Lufkin, TX before we met. We were fairly recently married in CA, and hadn’t changed the plates. We did then.)
